Zinnia - Lilliput. This Zinnia has a reputation of being the “most popular” zinnia for a long time. This plant is upright with long erect stems producing a single daisy-like flower on its top. During a long blooming period from mid-summer to the first frost, you can enjoy long lasting flowers in vibrant colors of orange, pink, purple, red, white and yellow. They are noted for the uniform pompom-like shape, and have been at the top of the list to use as long-lasting cut flowers for vases, arrangements, and bouquets. For those who live in condos or apartments with no garden space, these flowers do very well in outdoor containers. They do best if properly spaced for adequate ventilation between them to avoid spreading pests or disease problems. They are frost sensitive and can tolerate temperatures no lower than 60 degrees F, and are most happy at 74-84 degrees F. This is such an easy to grow, low maintenance plant, and would bring some excitement to wherever you choose to place it.
*Tip: to enjoy an extended blooming time, sow a few seeds once a week after initial sowing.
